Chapter II: Captivity

The snow outside had not melted, and it was piled on the bare branches of the yard, crushing the tiny branches. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoThere used to be a swing hanging under the tree, but no one had cleaned and repaired it for four years, and now it has fallen into a pile of rotten wood.

Otherwise, taking advantage of this moonlit and watery weather, sitting on the swing and swinging high, you may be able to see the snow maple tree on the hillside not far away.

There was no light in the room, and the small stars were shining brightly, and the surroundings were so quiet that only the chirping of insects could be heard in the corners.

The moonlight became thicker and thicker, and suddenly, a melodious and melodious sound of the flute came from outside the wall.

Mu Junning sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, the slightest coolness penetrated into her body through the clothes, she poured a glass of wine alone, raised her glass to the moonlight, the liquid in the cup shook in the crystal clear white porcelain, the wine was light.

"Leave? You said your name is Huang Li, right? ”

She couldn't see the appearance of the person outside the wall, but her identity was not difficult for her to guess.

He is separated, and he is the seedling. The line is vigorous, and the center is shaky. Those who know me say that I am worried, and those who do not know me say what I want. Hello sky! Who is this?

Detachment. Sure enough, it's a good name......

Outside the courtyard, a long figure leaned against the wall, hearing Mu Junning's question, the movements of his hands paused, and the whimpering flute stopped abruptly.

In the past four years, she has rarely spoken, maybe she has already guessed the identity of Huang Li, or maybe she hasn't. All this is like paper on the screen window, since it is not pierced, then he can continue to pretend and play the role of Huang Li.

Huang Li stroked the jade flute in his hand and walked out of the shadows under the wall tiles, a moon-white shirt lined him very elegantly, four years of time did not leave any traces on him, although he was thinner, but his temperament was more calm.

After not hearing the movement for a long time, Mu Junning raised his eyes and glanced at the high wall, with a hint of imperceptible banter in his tone: "What? Have you forgotten your name? ”

"I haven't forgotten, and I don't dare to forget ......"

"Really?" Mu Junning raised his head and drank the wine in the cup in one gulp, frowned, and put down the white porcelain cup in his hand, this wine was a little spicy compared to seven days ago.

"Hmm...... Can I ask Miss Mu a question? Huang Li lowered his eyes and glanced at a pair of Ruyi buckles tied around his waist, a trace of inexplicable emotion flashed in his eyes, and he asked lightly with both expectation and fear: "Do you hate the person who imprisoned you for four years?" ”

"I don't hate." She replied neatly, with a shallow smile on her face, put down the wine glass, touched the position of her heart with her right hand, and shook her head self-deprecatingly, "Hate is because of love, if there is no love, where is the hatred?" ”

Just like the name of the poison in the body, the love is exhausted, and it occurs once every seven days, even if it is deep and thick, I am afraid that it will be exhausted under this endless torture.

"Really?" There was no emotion in Huang Li's words, but somehow, the jasper flute that was originally clenched suddenly slipped out of his hand and shattered into countless soft sounds.

was silent for a long time, and just when Mu Junning thought that Huang Li had left, suddenly a small figure broke in, and the fleshy calves kicked over the snow, and crashed straight into her arms.

Under the cover of the small white velvet fox fur padded jacket, at first glance it was a big snow ball, but when the snow ball raised its head and looked at her with big watery eyes, Mu Junning realized that it was a little doll no more than four years old.

The guards who had been stationed outside the gate of Luoxin Courtyard couldn't intercept it, and they also followed behind Xue Tuan'er, and hurriedly ran in, seeing the small figure hiding in Mu Junning's arms and rubbing it, a trace of embarrassment and embarrassment flashed on his face.

"Husband...... Madam, Master Nuo, he ......"

Before the guard finished speaking, Xue Tuan'er had already raised her little face, stared at her innocent and clear big eyes, clenched her little hands into fists to support her small chin, and shouted at her glutinously: "Sister." ”

Sister?

It was the first time she had heard someone call her sister, and it was the title that made her shake for a moment, so that she didn't hear the guards call her strangely.

"Sister, sister, don't send me away, okay? I'm so afraid of that fierce aunt......" Xue Tuan'er pointed in one direction and said delicately.

Mu Junning glanced in that direction, and knew in her heart that although she hadn't left Luoxin Courtyard for four years, she still knew a rough idea of where the housemother lived now.

The direction that Xue Tuan'er pointed to just now is clearly the courtyard of Yun Shuhua's current wife, Bai Ziyi.

Four years ago, after she gave up the position of her wife to Ziyi, she was imprisoned in the Luoxin Courtyard, and she was not allowed to step out of the courtyard without the warrant of the owner of Yunzhuang.

At that time, she was in a coma for seven days, and she did not have the opportunity to witness her husband's wedding, but she learned from the mouths of the maids and maids who passed by the courtyard that the grand banquet that day was unprecedented, the extravagance and waste of ten miles of red makeup, and the firecracker fire in the sky almost dyed the snow red.

With such pomp, he must love Zi Cheng very much......

Mu Junning frowned, lowered his eyes to look at Xue Tuan'er, who was shining with tears of pleading, and sighed lightly: "Tell my sister, what is your name?" ”

"Yunnuo, sister, my name is Yunnuo, but my father will call me Nuo'er, why don't you call me Nuo'er, sister." Xiao Yunnuo shook her hand and introduced herself seriously with a small face.

"Yunnuo?" Mu Junning seemed to be stunned, muttered silently, squatted down to eye level with Xiao Yunnuo, and asked softly, "Nuo'er, is your father the owner of the village here?" ”

"Hmm." Xiao Yunnuo nodded, although he didn't know what the owner of the village was, but usually the uncle in charge called his father like this, so it should be right.

Seeing Xiao Yunnuo's admission, Mu Junning hooked his lips bitterly, slowly raised his head, and looked in the direction where Huang Li was before.

It's been four years, and he must have forgotten about himself......

Suddenly, a soft and warm touch came from her face, Mu Junning retracted her thoughts, and saw Xiao Yunnuo open her eyes blankly, as if she didn't understand the corners of her eyes, and asked glutinously: "Sister, why do you shed tears when you laugh?" Daddy once said that people are only laughing and crying when they are extremely sad. ”

A trace of panic flashed in Mu Junning's eyes, then he stroked his cheeks, shook his head with a chuckle, and said, "Nuo'er, I'm not crying, I'm just blinded by the wind and snow." By the way, Noir, why did you come to my Courtyard of the Heart? ”

"The aunt who lives there is so fierce, Nuo'er is afraid." Xiao Yunnuo patted his chest with his little hand as if he had palpitations.

"Auntie?" Mu Junning saw it in his eyes, couldn't help laughing, touched Xiao Yunnuo's little head and said softly: "Nuo'er, if you are afraid of being bullied, you go and tell your mother, and your mother will definitely help you." ”

"But I don't have a mother, only a father." Xiao Yunnuo said with some doubts, in his impression, although there was an aunt with a boss's face to take care of him, his father never let him call her a mother, but just asked him to call that person "Aunt Ziyi".

Hearing Xiao Yunnuo say this, Mu Junning raised his eyes in surprise.

But before she could react, the guards waiting outside the courtyard had already interrupted impatiently: "Madam, Young Master Nuo should not stay in Luoxin Courtyard for too long, it's time to leave, please forgive Madame." After that, the guard had already forcibly hugged Xiao Yunnuo without saying anything.

Xiao Yunnuo couldn't break free, looked at Mu Junning with big smart eyes, and asked glutinously, "Sister, can I still come to see you next time?" ”

Although he knew that this was impossible, Mu Junning still nodded without wanting him to be disappointed.

With his sister's approval, Xiao Yunnuo's dissatisfaction with the guard immediately disappeared, and he left with a smile.

It's strange to say that since that day, Yun Nuo has really run to the Luoxin Courtyard every day, and the guards outside the door no longer stop him.

Sometimes Huang Li would also appear outside the courtyard, listening to her and Yun Nuo frolicking, and she didn't make a sound, just stood quietly, every time she heard the familiar breathing sound stay outside, she would have a moment of swaying, but she didn't say anything.

Everything looked so beautiful until the day the winter snow melted......

Shoots have grown on the dead branches of the ginkgo tree in the yard, Mu Junning sits on the rebuilt swing, squinting and swaying lazily and gently, the sun at dusk in early spring is a little cold, she is a little thin, her body can't help but tremble lightly, and her heart suddenly inexplicably swells up with a strange emotion, as if she is overwhelmed by a mountain.

Suddenly, a cold light swept by, reflecting the last rays of winter sunshine, and it stopped in front of her chest, and the thin blade trembled and whispered.

He came, not Yun Nuo, but Yun Shuhua.

"Aning, why are you doing this?" He seemed to be suppressing his anger, but there was still a bit of murderous aura in his words, like a sudden snowfall in the sky in a rare good weather, which was absolutely unguardable.

"I've imagined countless reunions, but I never imagined that when we met for the first time four years later, you would actually point a sword at my heart." She opened her eyes, smiled, and slowly got up from the swing, "Shuhua, do you think my heart is not broken enough to destroy it in person?" ”

"Noel is dead."

What the? Mu Junning's eyes widened, she took a step forward in disbelief, the tip of the sword stabbed into her chest with a "flutter", and a stream of bright red dripped down the blade to the ground, she stared at Yun Shuhua's eyes and muttered, "Impossible." ”

"Noel did die, it was chronic poison, the doctor said, the poison happened to be the night he met you." He gritted his teeth and pulled out the blade of the sword that had pierced into her, "No'er was in pain when she died, he cried and shouted 'sister', I knew it was you. ”

"You don't believe me? You don't believe I'm not poisoned at all? That's right...... How could you possibly believe me? Believe in a person who once destroyed the Yun family? She looked up at the sky, the same starry night, she met Yun Nuo, it was also such a night, Yun Nuo died.

"That's right, it's me, and the poison is me, so what?" She wanted to laugh, but she was afraid of tears, and since he didn't believe it, no amount of explanation would be useless.

"Then please Madame, you, experience No'er's pain." He glanced at the blood from the sword in disgust, tossed it aside, and grabbed her chin with his hand, forcing her mouth to open, and soon, a touch of coldness slid down her throat with a strange sweetness.

Hehe, could it be that even if it was the poison he fed, would she be willing to eat it?

I don't know how long it took, the moment he let go of her, the poison in his body had already begun to attack, whether he had increased the dose of poison, or whether the poison had induced the poison of emotional exhaustion, she couldn't tell the difference.

Every bone in her body cracked like an explosion, and she couldn't see her expression, but judging from his frightened and panicked expression, she should be very bad.

"Shuhua?"

"Hmm." He frowned, his eyes filled with a panic she had never seen before.

"Actually...... In the past four years, I have ...... I don't hate you. She bent her eyebrows and smiled, watching everything in front of her turn red, and suddenly looked up at the sky with some amusement, "Shuhua, look, this day...... It seems to be more than four years ago, when we got married...... And red. ”

"A-Ning......" He seemed a little at a loss, raised his hand to wipe a drop of blood and tears from the corner of her eye, "No'er, he ......"

"......Shhhh Speak. She put her index finger to his lips, "Just let me ...... Take a good look at you, okay? ”

Maybe it's been a long time since he's looked at each other like this, and he clumsily wants to look away, but he can't. wanted to hug her, but her hand was calmly pressed by her.

It seemed like a century had passed, and her breathing suddenly became a little heavier, as if something could not be contained, gurgling from the tip of her nose. She struggled to open her eyes wide, and saw what he was saying with his mouth open and closed, although she couldn't hear a word, she still pulled out a smile at him, and said softly: "Shuhua, I can finally ...... Remember you, remember you...... so that I can ...... In the next life, I will not meet you again......"

She hoped that she would never meet him again in the next life......

Yun Shuhua's eyes widened suddenly, and he subconsciously hugged her into his arms, and the horror in his heart continued to expand, as if he was about to burst out of his chest, and the hand that slid over the stiff smile on her face couldn't stop trembling slightly.

Seven orifices bleed.

Is she finally as dead as he hoped......

But why did he feel so uncomfortable, so uncomfortable that he wanted to tear out his heart?

Vote for me with a peach, and repay it with Qiong Yao. Bandit retribution, always think it is good.

Noel, Noel, this is actually the ...... he once promised her Noll ......

However, he did not do it after all......

She said that he had never owed her, and that what she owed him had been paid off today. In this way, even if the two of them are on Huangquan Road and next to the Sansheng Stone, they will no longer have a bond, and they will be able to completely forget each other......

Forget......

But can this kind of emotion seared into the soul really be forgotten......
